Why Kingston upon Thames Industry Chooses London Metal & Recycling Ltd

1. Industrial Focus, Not Domestic

We do not collect single domestic units or small household appliances. Our infrastructure is built for volume and weight, enabling superior rates and logistical support for large commercial projects that general scrap collectors cannot handle.

2. Ethical & Environmental Leadership

We are committed to the circular economy. Once the hazardous elements are removed, we strip the units to recover valuable non-ferrous metals such as copper, aluminium, brass, and steel. This diverts tonnes of waste from landfill and returns raw materials to the manufacturing supply chain.

3. Operational Excellence

We understand that commercial sites operate on tight schedules. We offer out-of-hours collections (including weekends) to ensure that our decommissioning works do not interfere with your business productivity or on-site logistics.
